Pleiades
The two lakes of the Divine Palikoi largely dried up due to geological activity, and nowadays the large carbon dioxide emissions they release are siphoned off and used in dry ice production and the water distributed for irrigation (Mineo), this location was discovered by using the coordinates provided in the Interlandi article and discovering the point nearby these where the Google Earth shows machinery we believe to be the siphoning equipment for the lakes.
